There is the following situation, in my bot there is a registration of a new user after the /start command, and after it a person can press the /next command and start searching for an interlocutor. And everything will be ok. But if I reload the bot, the user will not be able to get to the same State as after registration.
Is it possible to somehow set the initial state in aiogram ?
And yeah, is there a default state in aiogram states?
If I got it right, You need to persist state between sessions of your application running. Databases exist just for that. I personally like to create a huge enum with all possible dialogue states and deside on next reaction from data called back from user.
enum {
USER_SET_NAME,
USER_SET_EMAIL,
USER_REGISTERED
}
void handle_update(update) {
current_state = load_from_db(chatId);
if (current_state == USER_SET_NAME) {
ask_for_email();
save_to_db(USER_SET_EMAIL);
return;
}
if (current_state == USER_SET_EMAIL) {
end_registration();
save_to_db(USER_REGISTERED);
return;
}
}
